I bumped into Overeem in August in Atlanta as we were both transiting in the airport. I was surprised at how 'normal' he looked to me. I'm 5'11 and it didn't feel like he towered over me, and wasn't all that muscular - not as much as when he's in fighting shape.

He was nice enough to give me 5 minutes of his time - although I don't think he was too comfortable with some stranger saying "Hey Alistair!"

he certainly lost some size since his suspension for elevated testosterone. still massive for MMA standard.

You're very lucky he didn't knock you straight into the nearest by hospital

I am! He went through the body scanner straight after me, so while I was putting my shoes on I asked him when he was fighting next. He was cordial enough - just wanted to keep moving once he had his shoes on. Can't blame the man - it was nice of him to give me the time of day.

Yes because a 'famous' cage fighter, who probably only 2 out of 100 people in my office would recognise in real life, has the right to ignore you and walk away lol.
